Ted's HVAC, Plumbing, & Electrical

Job Description

Job Description


HVAC Career Accelerator Program
Fast-Track Technician Development Program
Launching September 2026
Build Your Career Faster. Earn Your Future.
Most HVAC companies expect it to take three to five years before you're trusted as a skilled technician.
At Ted's Air, Plumbing & Electric, we're building something different.
Ted's HVAC Academy is an intensive, performance-based training program designed to develop motivated individuals into skilled HVAC technicians within 12 months .
This isn't just another apprenticeship.
It's a faster path to a meaningful career built on skill, professionalism, and performance.
If you're hardworking, coachable, accountable, and ready to build a long-term career—not just find another job - we want to meet you. What You'll Learn
During the Academy, you'll combine classroom instruction, hands-on labs, and real-world field experience alongside experienced HVAC professionals.
You'll develop skills in:

  • HVAC systems and fundamentals
  • Airflow and refrigeration basics
  • Preventive maintenance procedures
  • Electrical and mechanical fundamentals
  • Safe tool operation
  • Customer communication
  • Professionalism inside customers' homes
  • Safety standards
  • Ted's service process
  • Living our Core Values every day
You'll spend time both in the classroom and riding alongside experienced technicians to immediately apply what you learn in the field. Compensation & Career Growth
At Ted's, we believe your income should reflect the value you create—not simply the amount of time you've been on the job.
Our HVAC Academy is designed to provide motivated individuals with a clear path to a high-demand, high-income profession.
Top-performing HVAC Service Technicians regularly earn well over $100,000 annually through a combination of hourly pay, performance incentives, and career advancement opportunities.
Your success will be determined by your:
  • Technical knowledge and craftsmanship
  • Commitment to continuous learning
  • Ability to earn customers' trust
  • Professionalism in every home
  • Consistent demonstration of Ted's Core Values
  • Performance and contribution to the team
There is no predetermined timeline for success. Some individuals advance more quickly than others because they consistently demonstrate the skills, work ethic, and professionalism required to serve our customers at the highest level. Who We're Looking For
No HVAC experience?
That's okay.
We're looking for people with the right attitude—not necessarily the right résumé.
If you're motivated, dependable, curious, and committed to becoming a trusted professional, we'll teach you the technical skills. Your Background Doesn't Have to Look Like HVAC
Some of the best HVAC professionals didn't begin their careers in the trades.
They started somewhere else—and brought valuable experience with them.
You may already have the qualities we're looking for.
Teachers & Educators
You know how to communicate clearly, solve problems, stay organized, and build trust with people—skills homeowners appreciate every day.
Military Veterans
Discipline, accountability, teamwork, professionalism, and performing under pressure make veterans exceptionally well suited for a career in HVAC.
College Graduates
Whether your degree isn't leading where you hoped or you're looking for a profession with greater earning potential and long-term stability, HVAC offers a rewarding career built on skill and performance.
Restaurant & Hospitality Professionals
If you've worked in restaurants, hotels, or hospitality, you're already accustomed to working hard, serving customers, solving problems quickly, and thriving in fast-paced environments.
Automotive & Diesel Mechanics
Mechanical aptitude, troubleshooting ability, and experience working with tools create an excellent foundation for learning HVAC diagnostics and repair.
Construction & Skilled Labor
Experience in construction, carpentry, roofing, electrical work, painting, landscaping, or general labor often translates well because you already understand craftsmanship, safety, and working with your hands.
Delivery Drivers & Logistics Professionals
Dependability, independence, time management, and customer interaction are valuable strengths that transfer well into HVAC.
Retail & Customer Service Professionals
HVAC isn't only about repairing equipment—it's about earning trust. Strong communication skills and a customer-first mindset help create exceptional service experiences.
Career Changers
Many successful technicians spent years in offices, warehouses, manufacturing, or other industries before discovering a career they truly enjoyed.
Recent High School Graduates
You don't need years of experience to build an exceptional career. If you're willing to learn, work hard, and stay coachable, we'll provide the training and mentorship to help you succeed. What Matters Most
We can teach HVAC.
What we're looking for are people who demonstrate:
  • Strong work ethic
  • Curiosity
  • Coachability
  • Dependability
  • Integrity
  • Professionalism
  • Respect for teammates and customers
  • Pride in doing quality work
If that sounds like you, your previous job title matters far less than your commitment to building a successful career. Why Ted's?
At Ted's, we don't just train technicians—we develop trusted professionals.
Our customers invite us into their homes during some of their most stressful moments. Technical skill matters, but integrity, communication, and professionalism matter just as much.
That's why every graduate of Ted's HVAC Academy is expected to live our Core Values:
  • Curiosity
  • Humility
  • Exceptional Quality
  • Wholehearted Service
  • Professionalism
When our customers trust us, everything else follows. Benefits
  • Paid training
  • Structured career development
  • Hands-on mentorship
  • Personalized coaching
  • Performance-based advancement
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • Paid time off
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Company-provided uniforms
  • Professional tools and equipment
  • Ongoing technical education
  • Long-term career advancement opportunities
Build More Than a Career
This isn't just another job.
It's an opportunity to build a profession, earn a great living, and become part of a team that invests in your success.
If you're ready to work hard, continue learning, and earn your future, we'd love to meet you.
Applications Open Summer 2026
First Academy Class Begins September 2026
Build your future. Build your career. Build it with Ted's.
